Safety Precautions
10
• Avoid dropping or subjecting the battery to severe impacts.
This may cause explosions or leaks, resulting in fire, injury and damage to the
surroundings. In the event that a battery leaks and the eyes, mouth, skin or clothing
contacts these substances, immediately flush with water and seek medical assistance.
If the battery charger becomes wet, unplug it from the outlet and consult your camera
distributor or the closest Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
• Unplug the battery charger from the power outlet after recharging is complete,
or when you are not using it.
• Do not place anything, such as cloth on top of the battery charger while it is
charging.
Leaving the unit plugged in for a long period of time may cause it to overheat and
distort, resulting in fire.
• Use only the specified battery charger to charge the battery.
• Do not cut, damage, alter or place heavy items on the power cord.
• Unplug the power cord periodically and wipe away any dust and dirt that has
collected on the plug, the exterior of the power outlet, and the surrounding area.
• Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.
This could result in fire or electrical shock.
• Before you discard batteries, cover the terminals with tape or other insulators.
Contacting other metal materials in waste containers may lead to fire or explosions.
Cautions
• Do not aim the camera at bright light sources (the sun, etc.).
Doing so may cause malfunction or damage the image sensor (CCD).
• Be careful not to bang the camera or subject it to strong impacts or shocks
when hanging it by the strap.
• Be careful not to bump or push strongly on the lens.
This could lead to injury or damage the camera.
• When using the camera on a beach or at a windy location, be careful not to
allow dust or sand to enter the camera.
This may cause the camera to malfunction.
• Do not use the equipment in a manner that exceeds the rated capacity of the
electrical outlet or wiring accessories. Do not use if the power cord or plug are
damaged, or if not fully plugged into the outlet.
• Avoid using, placing or storing the camera in the following places.
- Places subject to strong sunlight.
- Places subject to temperatures above 40° C (104° F).
- Humid or dusty areas.
These could cause leakage, overheating or explosion, resulting in fire, burns or other
injuries. High temperatures may also cause deformation of the casing.
• Do not allow dirt or metal objects (such as pins or keys) to contact the charger
terminals or plug.
This could result in fire, electrical shock or other damage.
• Do not use the flash with dirt, dust or other items stuck to the surface, or when
covering the flash with your fingers or clothing.
This may cause the camera to malfunction.
